1. Introduction

This manual is designed for both the technician and the home owner.

Please read this entire manual before installing or operating your Ecoteck Monica Plus Freestanding

Wood Pellet Burning Heater. Failure to follow these instructions may result in property damage, bodily

injury or even death. Any unauthorized modication of the appliance or use of replacement parts not

recommended by the manufacturer is prohibited. All national and local regulations shall be complied

with when installing this appliance. Your local Nature’s Flame dealer will be happy to assist you in

obtaining information with regards to your local building codes and installation restrictions.

1.1 Specications

1.1.1 Rating label Location

Ecoteck Monica Plus Freestanding: The rating label is located on the back of unit.

*Note: Consumption will vary with the type of fuel used.

IMPORTANT: The above values were found during testing and may vary with the fuel type, climate and

installation style.

1.1.2 Clearances to Combustibles

This pellet heater requires oor protection which must be non-combustible, extending beneath the

stove the full width and depth of the unit including (150mm) in front for ember protection.

AS/NZS2918 states that a 300mm forward projecting and 200mm side projecting oor protector must

be used from any door opening extremity as an absolute minimum. Due to the operating nature of the

Monica Plus pellet heater where opening the door causes a loss of vacuum and the re will shut down

completely, meaning the likelihood of any hot embers or burning fuel escaping from the combustion

chamber is extremely minimal, a 150mm forward projecting oor protector will be sufcient.

2. Safety Warnings & Recommendations

Pellet quality is important, please read the following:

Your pellet heater has been designed to burn ¼” (6mm) diameter wood pellets, manufactured to the

AS/NZS 4014.6 only.

DO NOT use this appliance as an incinerator.

DO NOT use unsuitable and non recommended fuels, including liquid fuels as this will void any

warranties stated in the manual.

The performance of your pellet heater is greatly affected by the type and quality of wood pellets being

burned. As the heat output of various quality wood pellets differs, so will the performance and heat

output of the pellet stove.

Caution: It is important to select and use only pellets that are dry and free of dirt or any impurities such

as high salt content. Wood pellets manufactured to the AS/NZS 4014.6 standard are recommended.

Dirty fuel will adversely affect the operation and performance of the unit and will void the warranty. The

Pellet Fuel Industries (PFI) has established standards for wood pellet manufacturers. We recommend

the use of pellets that meet or exceed these standards. Ask your dealer for a recommended pellet type.

2.1 Deciding where to locate your wood pellet burning heater

1. Do not install the pellet heater in a bedroom or room where people sleep.

2. Locate the pellet heater in a large and open room that is centrally located in the house.

This will optimize heat circulation.

3. Check clearances to combustibles (refer page 30).

2.2 Ash

The ash content of the fuel and operation of your stove will directly determine the frequency of cleaning.

The use of high ash fuels may result in the stove needing to be cleaned daily. A low ash fuel may allow

longer intervals between cleaning.

2.3 Clinkering

Clinkers are silica (sand) or other impurities in the fuel that will form a hard mass during the burning

process. This hard mass will block the air ow through the Burn Pot Liner and affect the performance

of the stove. Any fuel, even approved types, may clinker. Check the Burn Pot Liner daily to ensure

that the holes are not blocked with clinkers. If they become blocked, remove the liner (when the unit is

cold) and clean/scrape clinkers out. Clean the holes with a small pointed object if required. Refer to

the section Routine Cleaning and Maintenance.

2.4 Filling Fuel Hopper

Check hopper for foreign objects, then empty the bag of pellets into the hopper. DO NOT OVER FILL

as miscellaneous pellets could smoke if left to rest on an operating heater.

Store pellets at least one metre (1m) away from the pellet stove.

Warning: parts of the appliance, especially the external surfaces, will be hot to touch when in operation

so use due care.

2.5 Flammable Liquids

Never use gasoline, gasoline – type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter uid or similar liquids to

start or “freshen up” a re in the heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.

2.6 Installation

The stove must be installed and tested by specialised personnel approved by Nature’s Flame. Please

read this manual before installing or operating the stove. If you require further information, please

contact your Nature’s Flame dealer. Installation must be performed by authorized personnel, who must

give the purchaser a declaration of conformity of the appliance, and who will assume all responsibility for

the nal installation and consequent correct functioning of the product installed. It is also necessary to

take into consideration all the laws and national, regional, provincial and local regulations present in the

country in which the appliance has been installed. In the event of failure to respect these precautions,

Nature’s Flame declines all responsibility.

IMPORTANT:

• The place of installation of the heater must comply with local & national regulations. The

stove must be fuelled only with quality pellets manufactured to standard AS/NZS4014.6.

The stove cannot operate with traditional wood.

• The heater must not be used as an incinerator.

• Before connecting the heater electrically, the connection of the exhaust spigot must be

completed (specically for pellet stoves, not made from aluminum) with the ue. (All ue

joins must be sealed with maniseal exhaust cement).

• The protection grill inside the pellet tank must never be removed.

• There must be sufcient circulation of air in the room where the stove is installed. Never

open the door of the stove whilst it is functioning.

• When the heater is operating, the surfaces, the glass, the handle and the pipes become

overheated: during functioning, these parts must only be touched with the adequate

protection.

• Do not light the heater without having rst performed the daily inspection as described in

the MAINTENANCE & CLEANING chapter of this manual (see page 18).

• Scrupulously follow the maintenance program.

• Do not turn the heater off by disconnecting the electricity mains supply (use the control

panel or remote control).

• Do not clean the heater until the structure and the ashes have cooled down completely.

Carry out all operations in maximum safety.

Monica Plus should be installed in a centrally located position within the home. This will assist the

appliance to perform to the level required. As Monica Plus heats space by convecting air through heat

exchange tubes, the heater should face the majority of the area to be heated.

Monica Plus requires a power source to function. This is standard mains feed 240v plug - if this is

unavailable in close proximity a grounded extension lead may be used.

Monica Plus is to be installed on a non-combustible surface which must have a forward projection of a

minimum of 150mm from the glass door.

Please check all clearances to combustibles as listed on page 30 of this Owner’s/Technical manual.

In accordance with the requirements of AS/NZS 2918:2001 Monica Plus must be secured by seismic

restraint.

2.7 Operating Instructions

The heater is completely automated and will self-regulate the ignition phase, ve levels of power and

the switching off phase, guaranteeing safe functioning. The burn pot used for combustion allows most

of the ashes produced by the combustion of the pellets to fall into the collection drawer. However,

it is recommended that you check the burn pot every day, as not all pellets have high standards of

quality and could leave residue that is difcult to remove. The glass has special air circulation for self-

cleaning, however, a slight greyish lm cannot be avoided after a few hours of functioning. Pellets with

a diameter of 6mm, manufactured to the AS/NZ4014.6 or higher must be used with the stove.

2.8 Safety Devices

The heater is tted with sophisticated safety systems so that, in the case of breakage of one of the

individual parts or defects in the ue, no damage will be caused to the stove and the room in which it

is installed. In any case, when a problem arises, the pellets stop falling immediately and the switch off

phase is activated. The corresponding alarm will be shown on the display. The details can be seen in

the chapter on the alarms (page 16).

2.9 Responsibility

Nature’s Flame declines all responsibility, both civil and criminal, with the delivery of this manual, for

any accidents deriving from partial or total failure to observe the instructions it contains.

Nature’s Flame declines all responsibility deriving from the improper use of the stove, from its incorrect

use by the user, by unauthorised modications and/or repairs or from the use of spare parts which are

not original. The manufacturer declines all direct civil or criminal responsibility due to:

• Poor maintenance.

• Failure to observe the instructions in the manual.

• Use not compliant with the safety instructions.

• Installation that is not compliant with the regulations in force in the country.

• Installation by personnel who are not qualied or authorized.

• Modications and repairs that are not authorized by the manufacturer.

• Use of spare parts that are not original.

• Exceptional events.

2.10 Spare Parts

Use original spare parts only. Do not wait for the components to be worn before replacing them.

Replace a worn component before it is completely broken to prevent any accidents caused by the

sudden breakage of components. Perform the periodic maintenance checks as described in the

dedicated chapter on Maintenance (page 18).
